11/4 Trade deadline: Buyers, Sellers or not involved?
 

[B]The nfl trade deadline is 4pm on Tuesday: 11/4.[/B]

We have 3 games before that. If we fall from 3-3 to 3-6; we would have 5 conference losses.

Do we cut bait and instead of being a potential buyer; we become sellers. Though if we do fall to 3-6, what players of any value can we trade?

Mariota is one. He’d likely get a shot at starting and we can just promote Hartman to Backup qb. Maybe a team like the Jets would give us a 3rd or 4th rounder.

We really need picks as we don’t have 2nd or 4th round picks next year.

If we do fall to 3-6; season is realistically over as far as playoffs. So, we should have a fire sale.


Of course the flip slide is we go 6-3, would we be buyer? We have so few picks next year.

Re: 11/4 Trade deadline: Buyers, Sellers or not involved?
 

No way I'm trading Mariota unless it's an unrefusable offer. Hartman was horrible in preseason. Don't want him playing and I'm a ND fan. Other players I may consider if your poor record scenario comes to fruition. Only would buy if AP feels we have a realistic SB shot.

Re: 11/4 Trade deadline: Buyers, Sellers or not involved?
 

Not involved. Belief is that we're a play-off team so won't be selling and are already short draft picks so won't be buyers.

Re: 11/4 Trade deadline: Buyers, Sellers or not involved?
 

I agree we'll likely have minimal if any trade action. This thread is arguably 2 weeks/games too early. If we're 5-3 or 4-4 by then, I say no need to panic buy or sell. If we're 3-5 then maybe look at what we can do to strengthen a recovery. No way this staff gives up on the season at that point.

Re: 11/4 Trade deadline: Buyers, Sellers or not involved?
 

No way do we trade Mariota. Our QB1 is still wearing a knee brace, and Mariota has been very good in the QB2 role. No need to tailor the offense to a qb that has a different skill set. He can step right in, and manage the position. If anything, I think we would need to beef up the back end of the defense.
I think wagner and Luvu have lost a step this year, so LB may need a bump, and secondary feels like a weak spot. Could be argued that scheme is making that part of the lineup underwhelming, but thats a whole different conversation.
D def needs some help though. But I, honestly, dont see them as doing it via trading.

Needs: WR, TE, OC, HC, DC, CB, S, S, CB, K, LB, LB, DE, DE…did I miss anything?

The offensive line are a bunch of soft ass pussies too. They offer absolutely nothing in the run game. 5 fucking pussies.

Re: 11/4 Trade deadline: Buyers, Sellers or not involved?
 

We are NOT a playoff team. Not even close. We lucked out last year, and this team still needs more building blocks. Draft defense.

Re: 11/4 Trade deadline: Buyers, Sellers or not involved?
 

Um….sellers. If anyone will buy.

Re: 11/4 Trade deadline: Buyers, Sellers or not involved?
 

Not a trade, but I'd give Tyler Lockett, released by the Titans, a call and see how he feels about coming to Washington. He's got to considered a viable #2/3 option.

I would consider this if we have been winning, but at this point, it does look like our playoffs chances have decreased significantly so I would prefer to give our young WRs opportunities to gain experience for next year.

Titans must be a mess since he requested to be let go.

Re: 11/4 Trade deadline: Buyers, Sellers or not involved?
 

I don’t expect any big moves as a seller or buyer

Re: 11/4 Trade deadline: Buyers, Sellers or not involved?
 

We are losing the next 2 games to fall to 3-6 before the trade deadline. I’d trade anyone we can. Season is over then. Even though we’d have a weaker defense ; I’d try to trade Payne. We aren’t likely resigning him; so get what we can for him. A 2nd or 3rd rounder.

Err, Payne is signed through to 2027, and while we have an out in 2026, that would make no sense ($11.2M dead cap).

Why the urge to sell core players that are still contributing? With the non-returners we'll have leaving end of this year (inc. Lattimore?) you'll have a gutted roster. We need to build now while JD5 is on his rookie contract, and while we have got too many OOTH players on the roster, we have some promising young ones. Yes we need to move to a younger roster, but selling good players is stupid.

Re: 11/4 Trade deadline: Buyers, Sellers or not involved?
 

If they are going to move on from Payne this offseason by cutting him, it’s would be negligent not to attempt to move him.

Bobby Wagner want to play for a title? Me:

Man, Snyder did such a number on this fanbase. Truly.

All that aside, I agree with you Matty that they're not likely to do anything splashy here. Obviously, being down our top 3 WRs, 3 DEs (including our best two), starting RB, and starting SS is a lot to overcome -- key pieces on both sides of the ball. I would imagine that the coaches and AP are aware that they've got a different team than they can actually field at the moment, which doesn't scream blow it up. My guess is that they're likely to get guys that are no more than a stop-gap (read: cheap), if anything.

Having said that, it seems clear that Ekeler and Lattimore won't be back, and I'd be surprised if Noah Brown returns (just not healthy enough), which means we're going to need to WR, RB, and CB help. If AP could find someone he likes AND thinks can stick beyond this season before the 11/4 deadline, I'm all for it. But I am having a hard time imagining anyone that fits that bill will be available to us, or , perhaps more accurately, available to us on reasonable terms.

I'd put CB, WR and LB as top 3 needs, now and for the draft. Edge probably top now, but maybe 3rd or 4th for the draft. I'm interested to see if Jones can add something at CB and pressure Igbinoghene to up his game. I see only 1, if either being re-signed in '26. I can see the Lattimore experiment being over and Ertz having more downside than up, but aside from Wagner hopefully retiring (sorry big man, it's time), I don't see anyone else that should definitely be gone, at least that isn't an FA in February. If we can improve at those 4 positions at all now, the season is salvageable at least. Into next year all 4 positions need an upgrade, and I'd throw in S and TE too (if Sinnott is a wash out).

Re: 11/4 Trade deadline: Buyers, Sellers or not involved?
 

Too me when it comes to needs, DE stands tall at the top spot

RB slightly above WR

JD5 and this oline with a great RB would push the offense into the stratosphere. While we have run the ball with decent stats, I don’t think we are a great running team.

Are we already done with Bill?

I blame kliff more than anyone fir any running struggles

JD5 ruled out for the Chiefs game. Ugh.

Absolutely not, but he is literally the RB room. I love me some mcPickles but he isn’t in future plans.

Bill gonna need some help

Here we go again. Last year was not luck. How do you win two playoff games on the road against really good team and say it's luck? They peaked and got hot. The way the team is constructed it's probably not set up for long term success, the breaks went their way, especially w/ injuries and the QB played great. I think that would be a more accurate analysis over just saying the team was lucky.

No freakin way. Two weeks ago everyone loved the guy.

[quote=skinsfan69;1377162]No freakin way. Two weeks ago everyone loved the guy.[/quote]

Agreed. This was a function of Dallas having a DC with a brain. They knew we had no receivers, so they stacked the box and dared us to try to run on them. So, unsurprisingly, it was a challenge. Bill will be fine.

Re: 11/4 Trade deadline: Buyers, Sellers or not involved?
 

Bill is the man. No one was going to be successful against Dallas. They stacked the box and completely dominated our line.

Same thing is going to happen in Kansas City too. I'm actually glad this game is on Monday now. This is a guaranteed loss, glad my Sunday won't be ruined.

I'm glad he's out,let him be completely healed up and Mariotta was playing better than him anyway,he's not looking like he did last year,not even close.

I disagree with this as much as possible.

[quote=sdskinsfan2001;1377186]I disagree with this as much as possible.[/quote]

Totally. Some are concentrating on the few bad plays and not what's been good. JD isn't lighting it up but he's thrown 8 TD's to only 1 INT in 5 games. A difficult start should have been expected given it's year 2 (teams have adjusted) and he didn't have Terry all through camp (chemistry was starting to build until he got hurt). Aside from the fumble, he hasn't lost a game for us, that's on the D.

We're all just frustrated after how awesome last year was. It sucks right now. So don't hold it against you for being pissed off right now.

Re: 11/4 Trade deadline: Buyers, Sellers or not involved?
 

This team has a lot of holes to fill, I’d use the deadline to our advance and snag a few player.
Personally, I’d like to see a Terry, Deebo, and Jaylen WR set in the playoffs

That Mora video is timeless.

Re: 11/4 Trade deadline: Buyers, Sellers or not involved?
 

This is the oldest team in the NFL, w/ a losing record and we lack draft picks. Things aren't looking real good right now. This is the worst kind of position to be in.

If I'm Peters I'm working the phones. Problem is none of our older guys outside of Terry have any value. Maybe Payne.

Re: 11/4 Trade deadline: Buyers, Sellers or not involved?
 

It’s shaping up to be one of those perfect storm seasons of injuries, tough schedule, and bad breaks.
